Ingolfiella longipes

Ingolfiella longipes is a species of amphipod crustacean in the family Ingolfiellidae. It is known from a single specimen held at the Naturalis Biodiversity Center. It was collected from Walsingham Sink Cave, an anchialine cave in Hamilton Parish, Bermuda,[2][3] and is thus considered to be critically endangered.[1]
